[Ubuntu] PureBasic Dependency Installation Bash Script

[Env]

Hey all,

Find below code that'll install all the required dependencies for PureBasic for use on a Linux machine. I use virtual machines quite alot, and rather than having to spend an unjust amount of time searching for dependency packages each time I create a linux vm in which I will be using PureBasic, I found it easier just to write this bash script:

pb-dependencies.sh

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install gcc -y
sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev -y
sudo apt-get install libsdl1.2-dev -y
sudo apt-get install libstdc++6 -y
sudo apt-get install libiodbc2 -y
sudo apt-get install libiodbc2-dev -y
sudo apt-get install libxine1 -y
sudo apt-get install libxine-dev -y
sudo apt-get install libgnomeprintui2.2-0 -y
sudo apt-get install libgnomeprintui2.2-dev -y
sudo apt-get install gtk2-engines-pixbuf -y
sudo apt-get install libXxf86vm-dev -y

Usage:

• Create a new document on your Linux desktop called "pb-dependencies.sh", copy the contents of the code above into the document, and ensure the file has execution privileges.
  (File Properties/Permissions/'Allow executing file as program')
• Execute the file by double-clicking on it.
• Enter your password to enable Super-User when requested.
• Acknowledge and answer prompts if they present themselves.

Change Log:

• Added '-y' parameter to apt-get calls (as suggested by Ramihyn_) to add a bit more automation.
• Added installation for 'libXxf86vm-dev' for developing 3D applications. (Using opengl subsystem.)

And that should be it in theory..

Disclaimer: I'm in no way a linux-savvy guy so I'm guessing there is a simpler, more efficient way of achieving this, but this is the method I have adopted, and it works for me

Thanks

I would suggest to add the flag "-y" to apt-get and execute the script as root to make it fully automatic

You see, always an easier way

Thanks, Ramihyn_ - I've added the '-y' parameter as you suggested. As for running it as root, that's entirely down to the person executing the script


Thanks

Perfect timing, i just needed it right now
Thanks a lot

[EDIT] I've added the line

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install libgnome2-dev -y

for my needs

Why not satisfied with this package

[Env]

Updated list so it includes 'libXxf86vm-dev' for those experiencing problems with the 3D examples. Ensure you use the 'opengl' subsystem.


Thanks

That and the beta IDE worked for me with x86 LUbuntu 11.04.
